"Nearly perfect thriller with a fascinating twist"
This was a nearly perfect thriller. Harris's writing style is, as always, evocative and descriptive while maintaining a certain succinctness. He expertly brings out his characters, and everything is more or less very believable. The plot draws you in.
I thought that Michael Jayston's performance was flawless. He narrates most of the book in his native British accent (including the characters), and enunciates German words with faithful accuracy.
"Good light reading for fans of gaming"
I grew up in the eighties and played loads of Nintendo games. This book is a straightforward look at the founding and rise of the game company, which was actually founded in the late 1880's as a card company in Japan but made its first big splash in the U.S. with the 1981 release of Donkey Kong (a mistranslated title that the designers originally intended to be something along the lines of "Stubborn Ape").
This book is not intended to have Pulitzer-level writing, so yes: as some reviewers have pointed out, the author uses awkward and frequent metaphors. Take, for example, the following excerpt in which the author explains that Shigeru Miyamoto, the game designer who created Mario, generally avoided complex storylines while his engineers sometimes "snuck" them into his games: "All Miyamoto wants from [Mario] is a connection to gamers. He's at one end of a tug-of-war, pulling for Mario to be recreational, away from the half-hour cut scenes of the storytellers on the other end of the rope. But Miyamoto is only one man, and thus some very clever story sometimes sneaks in under the portcullis."
The book focuses on describing the design, marketing, gameplay, and ideas behind many of Nintendo's most- and least-popular titles and game systems. Readers will no doubt remember many of these with great fondness. The book covers far less detail about the personal politics between the people involved in the game company itself... you hear scattered stories about how people arrived at or left the company, but there is nothing earth-shattering or extremely controversial. (If you're looking for a saga about the internal politics at Nintendo, this story will give you a very cursory overview; look elsewhere.)
I wasn't a big fan of the audiobook narration, but it's passable and not the most critical aspect of a book like this. Ray Porter's voice sounds, remarkably, like a perfect combination of Tom Hanks and Dan Aykroyd. His reading reminded me of the way a sportscaster speaks, which lends itself somewhat to the tone of the book.
Overall, the book is a light and engaging read. If you grew up in the eighties and played Nintendo games and are even slightly passionate about gaming, this book is probably a good choice for you.
"Uneven thriller and recording, great performance"
I decided to try Archangel because I loved Robert Harris's Fatherland as well as the first two books from the Cicero trilogy, Imperium and Lustrum (the latter called Conspirata in the U.S.). I did not enjoy Archangel as much.
In the story, British historian Fluke Kelso (yes, that's the bizarre moniker of the protagonist) is attending a conference in Boris Yeltsin's Moscow in the 90s. He learns of the possible existence of a black oilskin notebook owned by Joseph Stalin. From there, the book is a sort of chase that involves a race to find this MacGuffin and the meaning behind it, between Kelso and ex-KGB heavies, new Russian intelligence/police, an extremely annoying American reporter, and a morose femme fatale.
It's fascinating to see the way Harris has weaved his fictional world with actual elements of history, but there is something about the story that seems off. Where Fatherland and the Cicero books are expertly plotted, Archangel moves along in a clumsy fashion. Also, the contrivance of the name Fluke Kelso distracted me, and was a constant reminder of the unwieldiness of the plot.
The story picks up momentum as it moves toward the conclusion. Harris's vivid descriptions of snow are some of the best I've seen. I agree with those who find the ending implausible.
I've listened to over fifty audiobooks, and this is one of the most uneven I've heard. Michael Kitchen (who plays Detective Foyle in Masterpiece Theatre's Foyle's War) does a masterful job narrating, but the recording engineer made a number of amateurish mistakes. For example, the volume periodically increases or decreases arbitrarily, forcing you to turn the volume up or down to compensate. Also, it is very apparent and distracting where one recording session left off and another one picked up.
"Impossible to stop listening"
Of the 30+ books I've listened to since 2009, The Devil in the White City is one of the best experiences. Erik Larson's writing is sublime. He conjures the Chicago of the late nineteenth century so clearly that he might be documenting events that occurred yesterday. The stories about the design, organization, and construction of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair as well as the personalities involved are all utterly fascinating. The macabre portions that deal with serial killer Dr. H. H. Holmes are so bizarre as to almost be unbelievable. While listening to this book, I found myself continually thinking, "Truth truly is stranger than fiction."
Prior to my listen I was apprehensive about the narrator, Scott Brick, who had also done Ron Chernow's Washington: A Life. I felt that Brick's reading of that book was slightly stilted, but his performance of Devil in the White City is pitch perfect.
"Not Steve Martin's best work"
I love Steve Martin's comedy, and I moderately enjoyed the novel Shopgirl. He's a talented writer when it comes to the actual prose, but I found this novel difficult to get into or even care about.
First of all, the main character (Lacey Yeager) is hardly likeable and terribly hard to identify with. I just didn't care about her. In fact, I just didn't care period. She's a self-serving narcissist who really doesn't have many redeeming qualities other than the fact that nearly every heterosexual man she meets wants to sleep with her. (She is not, by the way, a cardboard character; just seriously dull.)
The best thing about this book is that it delves deeply into the pretentiousness of the art world of New York City. If that's what you're looking for, the book is for you. But if you're looking for a novel with captivating characters that you might care deeply about, I wouldn't recommend it.
On the plus side, Campbell Scott does a wonderful job, deadpanning his entire way through. (In some ways, I realize that Scott and Martin have similar-sounding voices.)
"Expert deconstruction of JFK conspiracy theories"
This book effectively demonstrate once and for all that Oswald acted alone. This is the abridged version of the book (the unabridged one is 1,632 pages), and is brilliantly narrated by the Edward Hermann.
Among books that concern the JFK assassination, this one is particularly notable and difficult to ignore because of its author: Vincent Bugliosi. Known primarily as the attorney famous for prosecuting Charles Manson, Bugliosi also acted as the prosecutor in a mock trial for Oswald staged and filmed by a British television station in 1986. Serving as Oswald's attorney in the trial was Gerry Spence (also well-known for many high profile cases, among them his success with the Karen Silkwood verdict).
The book has two distinct sections: the first is a narrative of the days just before the assassination and leading up to Oswald's burial. It reads like an exciting police procedural (and was in fact published as a separate book a year later ("Five Days in November"). The rest of the book serves as Bugliosi's arguments that Oswald acted alone. Bugliosi summarizes all of the most famous conspiracy theories, many of the minor ones, and picks them apart, one by one, with the surgical precision of a brilliant attorney.
For me, it was difficult to stop listening to this book. I was riveted.
"Life as a citizen in the Third Reich"
Sometimes fascinating and always detailed account of what it was like to live in the Third Reich, for all walks of life.
The reader is somewhat stilted, and the production values of this work are sub-standard. For example, there are numerous occurrences in which the reader repeats a sentence or paragraph, or stops in the middle of a sentence to start over. These are normally edited out, of course, in the post-production process. Clearly, whoever did the work on this recording did not do their job well.
"Unlike anything you've ever heard"
The human achievements recounted in this book are overall absolutely amazing and sometimes even difficult to believe or comprehend.
I thought certain portions dragged a little bit, but overall I found this an engaging and informative piece. If you are a runner or at all interested in running, the stories in this book will thrill you.
"Narrator and novel perfectly narrated"
I decided to listen to the audiobook version of 1984 because I hadn't read it in a while. I have never heard a more perfect rendition of a novel... Prebble's narration is sublime. A powerful performance.
"Great novel, amazing performance"
Somewhere like 30 years in the writing, this novel really brings out the horrors of the Vietnam war and war in general; the performance by Bronson Pinchot (Balky in the TV show Perfect Strangers) is one of the best audio performances I've heard of a book, and other listeners seem to agree; this is not your typical Vietnam story.

My hair was chemically damaged by a coloring incident and I needed major help I was washing it and pieces we snapping off. I closed ties with the hairdresser that damaged my hair and went to a place with really good reviews, which was a Redken salon. The stylist recommended a deep conditioning and to use the extreme line faithfully. Shampoo, Fortifying Conditioning Treatment, and Anti- Snap, and rotate All Soft treatment every three washes . I've been using all for the past six weeks.
So I'm reviewing the entire line more of a whole, because the Redken website says to use the system as well. When I shampooed my hair was falling out. After about three uses the breakage during washing and combing became very controlled and returned to how it was prior to the coloring incident.
The breakage during styling seemed the same as before I started the system, I noticed minimal change. The breakage during combing when dry also had a minimal change.
Now it seems like this product has helped but it hasn't rescued my hair so to say. I can say is that I would absolutely buy again because the healthy part of my hair (everything but the last three inches) are the healthiest they've been my entire life, super smooth and shiny. Great product if you have minimally damaged hair.

My hair has always been healthy. However, I've been doing ombre color lately and noticed that my ends were snapping off quite easily. So after getting a trim, I use this once or twice a week after washing my hair. I don't use on my roots only mid to ends of my hair and don't use daily. This made my hair crunchy and dry.
After using I notice a significant decrease in those bulbs on my hair strands that snap off. I find maybe 2-5 compared to strands of them prior to using. I will continue to purchase and use.
For reference I also use a little heat protectant serum and leave in conditioner. I think those are a must if your hair is bleached and you heat style.

Works great, I have bought it several times. I notice no difference between the new and old formula. My hair is fine and breaks easily and this product helps to strengthen and repair damage. I only use it twice a week or so and always follow with a leave in conditioner.

As a total product whore who buys so many different things that it is almost impossible to purchase the same thing twice, I have two bottles of this stuff. My hairdresser has me using it as an overnight treatment, saturating my hair with it. I was using it as a styling product, but it works so much better as an overnight treatment. It makes my hair soft, smooth, and non-frizzy like nothing else. I have a lot of respect for this treatment, and I usually am a Kerastase or Oribe type of girl.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Oily, Olive Hair: Brunette, Fine Eyes: Black
A couple of years ago my hair was in its worst condition ever. After years of relaxing it and excessive heat styling I had a bad chemical cut. So I cut my hair (though not nearly as much as I needed to), got a Brazilian keratin treatment (so I didn't have to heat style it anymore) and decided to take really good care of my hair from that time on.
I completely changed habits towards my hair and decided to invest on some good hair products, one of which was Anti Snap. For the price (I paid R$90, around 45 USD, for this in Brazil) I was specting a bottled miracle, but that's not what I got. Or so I thought.
Anti Snap is a liquidy white-ish leave-in that is very lightweight and does not weigh your hair down. On the other hand, it doesn't seem to do much for your hair either. I understand that this a treatment type of leave-in rather than a finishing one. The point is to help treat damaged hair and prevent it from breaking instead of making it look good. So I started using Moroccanoil for that purpose. I would use that combo every time I would wash my hair, and in a few months I could notice a significant change in my hair's condition.
I have been using these products for over a year now and my hair has changed so drastically in texture and its overall appearance. Apart from the ends (those ends, from the chemical cut, that should've been trimmed every 3 months) my hair feels super soft and looks really shiny and healthy. I just got it trimmed few days ago (yes, over a year after the last cut), and it's hard to believe my hair had been in such bad shape not so long ago. Even my hairdresser said so.
Although it was a combination of things, I strongly believe Anti-Snap contributed big time for my hair's recovery and allowed me to keep it long for all this time. Even after 14 months after the last cut, I only had to get 1.5/2 inches trimmed. And as I said, it was such a dramatic difference... I was truthfully impressed.
This is an all 5 lippies product for me, that I highly recommend for anyone with damaged hair. As I said, it might not improve your hair's superficial appearance at first (especially if it's really damaged), but you can use some other leave-in/serum/hair oil after this. More importantly, it's actually treating your hair.
I would definitely repurchase it even if I just got Bonacure Repair Rescue Sealed Ends (which is rather similar, I think). It's pricey but worth it and you get a really good amount for what you pay. I now want to try the Extreme Strength Builder mask.

I love this stuff! I always wondered what I could do to stop my hair from breaking off and therefor not growing because of all the foils I have done on a regular basis and now I've found the answer! Usually when I get my hair foiled, my hair breaks like crazy and its especially noticeable around my face because my fringe area seems to keep getting shorter all on its own! I never had to cut my fringe and I hated that! but now since using this product along with Redken extreme cat spray (also amazing!! if not even more amazing!!) for a few months, my fringe grew out within 2 weeks after getting foils and my fringe cut!! amazing! now I have to go back and get it trimmed again! that has never happened to me before! I leave the cat spray on for an hour or so underneath a showercap and a beanie to warm it up(works better), then rinse it out under the shower head (I dont get back in the shower or anything,dont need to) then I apply an Intense deep conditioning repair treatment for another hour also under the showercap and beanie, then rinse that out, then to towel dried hair I apply some Redken anti snap and WOW my hair is amazingly healthy. Highly recommend these products for people who have trouble growing their hair /keeping it long/ keeping it from snapping and breaking, they both really do what their meant to! My hair has never been better. Or longer! and its terribly bleached! TRY IT! its worth it :)
Packaging is great! I actually love the slight medicine smell to it, it reminds me of yummy liquid panadol or something that children have ;)
Price is ok, not too dear but not cheap either, I still keep repurchasing it because its so good!

Age: 19-24 Skin: Dry, Fair-Medium, Neutral Hair: Red, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Green
I apply this mainly to my ends after showering while my hair is damp. Be careful of using too much- I've found it can become a bit sticky which can actually cause a few breakages. I get good results by using this 1-2 times a week. I have color treated hair and have noticed it not as dry as it typically would be, especially at the ends. A bit fewer split ends/ dead ends as well.
But a few negatives: I don't think this product is all that special for the price tag and don't think it had that big of an effect for me to go repurchase it. Also, in terms of packaging, the pump can be a bit difficult to control and the product often gets everywhere, especially since it's quite liquidy.
Overall- it's not bad but its not miraculous either.

This is for protein repair, not a moisturizer. I have a lot of breakage around my crown from heat styling, ragging, and tossing and turning at night. I also drive with my windows down, so my hair gets whipped around, dried out, and tangled.This is a dual purpose leave in-protein repair to strengthen as well as protection for heat styling. I am loving the results, and to top it off, it smells of blueberry muffins to me.
Another trick is to use this or the regular Anti Snap conditioner to breathe life into old natural bristle makeup brushes that are breaking/shedding. It has rehabbed my beloved Sonia Kashuk Into the Woods collection.

This product works great. I use the full line of the extreme products on my hair. I have bleached hair and I was in need of a good hair care line. It is a bit pricey and I was hesitant to buy it but I'm glad I did. I use this every time I wash my hair (3-4 times a week) and I've seen improvement for sure. I don't know if you can put this is dry hair, so I just apply it to towel dried, damp hair. Also, the smell is amazing! I don't really know how to describe it, very sweet and vivid! Hope this helps! :)

I liked this product but not enough for it to be a positive review.
I felt nothing was very special about this salon product. Dare I say redken is overrated...
It felt like I had to use a lot of pumps for it to saturate my hair enough. It didn't do much for the split ends I already had, it just attracted extra product build up. (I know I need to trim the splits)
NO product will mend your split ends. The only way to get rid of them is to trim them.
This didn't seem like a good heat protectant, it just dried out my hair when I added heat.
cremes work better for my hair and this is a fairly liquidy serum.
Aussie, Pantene, Garnier, Not Your Mother's, all have products that I prefer. No I won't repurchase.
this gave my hair mega protein overload which led to breakage

June 7 (Bloomberg) -- National Football League team owners asked a judge to throw out a lawsuit filed by players who accuse the league of violating federal antitrust laws.
The NFL owners filed a two-page dismissal request yesterday with U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson in St. Paul, Minnesota, just three days after they asked a federal appeals court in St. Louis to overturn Nelson's April 25 order directing them to end their player lockout.
"It is baseless," James W. Quinn, a lawyer for players, said of the request.
Ten players led by New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady sued the league on March 11 after negotiations on a new collective bargaining agreement failed and the National Football League Players Association announced it would no longer function as a union. NFL owners declared the lockout at midnight that night.
The New York-based league is the wealthiest in U.S. pro sports. At issue in the dispute between players and owners is how to divide about $9 billion in revenue, plus an extension of the season from 16 to 18 games and a rookie salary cap.
While Nelson ordered league owners to end their lockout, during which players are barred from accessing team training facilities, coaches and staff, the appellate court on May 16 granted the NFL's request to delay enforcement of her ruling until it decides the underlying appeal.
Antitrust Ploy
On June 3, attorneys for the league told the three-judge U.S. Court of Appeals panel that the players' disavowal of their union was a ploy to avoid antitrust law exemptions that were in effect during labor negotiations.
"This is a labor dispute, not an antitrust problem," Paul D. Clement, a lawyer for the owners, told the appeals court, arguing the issue belongs before the National Labor Relations Board, not the courts.
Players' lawyer Theodore Olson countered that the league engages in anticompetitive practices and that the players preferred the protections of federal antitrust laws to those afforded by being in a union.
"The players did not want to be in the union anymore," he said during the appellate argument.
Greg Aiello, a spokesman for the NFL, declined to comment on the league's filing yesterday.
The NFL has requested a hearing date of Sept. 12 and said it would file papers supporting its dismissal request no later than Aug. 1.
The lower court case is Brady v. National Football League, 11-cv-639, U.S. District Court, District of Minnesota (St. Paul). The appellate case is Brady v. National Football League, 11-1898, 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals (St. Louis).

It was a bad winter for utility bills, power outages - and for potholes. In the Carolinas alone, AAA cited a 100 percent increase in tire- and wheel-related repairs for the first three months of the year.
Those pothole-related expenses include the cost of repairing ruptured tires, bent wheel rims and skewed alignments.
Deteriorating road conditions generally mean more out-of-pocket costs for motorists.
For the state Department of Transportation, faced with the extra winter-related expense of roadside tree removal, it was just more bad news.
Already, the DOT struggles to catch up on long-delayed road maintenance problems. That's largely because of the Legislature's unwillingness to provide a sufficient source of revenue to sustain the expense.
The state's gas tax - one of the lowest in the nation - hasn't been increased since 1987, despite repeated reminders that our roads need major work.
The latest estimate put the shortfall at a staggering $30 billion over the next 20 years.
Of course, the argument for increasing the gas tax is that it effectively serves as a user fee. And as a user fee, it ought to provide a level of revenue that enables necessary road repairs and improvements to be made.
Clearly that isn't the case in South Carolina.
And if motorists don't pay to improve highways at the fuel pump, crumbling highway infrastructure will exact additional repair costs on their vehicles.
Think about that the next time you can't avoid the gaping maw of a jagged pothole.

Kids love tech and tablets, but Mom and Dad sometimes worry that an addictive app will make their little one a slave to the screen. Not to worry—at the 2013 Toy Industry Association Toy Fair, there were lots of alternatives to one-dimensional iPad play on display. One exciting new trend is the "appcessory"—a play system designed specifically to let kids use tech devices while allowing them to break free of flatland.
An appcessory is simply any product that integrates an app, tablet or phone with an off-screen toy that kids can manipulate in the real world. According to the Toy Industry Association, "app-plus" toys are part of a trend of toys that combine real and virtual worlds, integrating 3-D elements into play to create richer and more educational play. Check out these standouts from the fair:
SmartSee. (WowWee; ages 3 and up; price TBD; iOS and Android) SmartSee is like a child's little robot pal. Just download the app and pop an iPad or tablet into SmartSee's tummy, and you're ready to play. The toy looks like a simple tablet stand with a cartoon face, but it's really much more. Once the tablet is snapped into place, it's "locked" so your little one can't bang or break it. This is a thoughtful feature for parents just testing the waters of new tech devices since letting little hands play with expensive electronics can be a concern. The off-screen elements interact with the app, such as physical alphabet blocks—just point them at the tablet. When you hold a block with the letter E on it toward the screen, for example, a related video starts to play. The interactive features are both awesome and educational, combining the benefits of tactile learning with a powerful tech punch. The SmartSee will be available in late summer or early fall of 2013—definitely worth a look!
Augmented Reality Puzzles. (Ravensburger; ages 5 and up; $14.99 and up; iOS) Have you ever wondered what do you do with a puzzle once it's put together? Of course you have! Already well-known for its challenging jigsaw puzzles, Ravensburger has added a line of puzzles that can be put together and used as a launching pad for games via an iPhone, iPad or iTouch (sorry, no Android yet). You and your family will have loads of fun snapping together city scenes, serene underwater environments or African animals—easier said than done with each puzzle at 1,000 pieces. Afterward, download the app that matches your puzzle and place your device over the scene to animate it and activate features. The puzzles all have different types of interactivity. With "Animals of Africa," the app will bring the animals to life via a short video clip; the "Underwater" puzzle will generate a "Find the Fish" game. The puzzles all have different price points but are generally inexpensive, and the app is free. Puzzles are great learning tools all by themselves, but Ravensburger has given these brain teasers added appeal—and the games provide motivation for kids to finish what they started!

NHL All-Star Game MVP: Welcome to Ryan Johansen's coming-out party in Columbus
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 1 day agoCOLUMBUS — Ryan Johansen has a ritual the mornings before games at Nationwide Arena. He walks into an office down the hall from the Columbus Blue Jackets' dressing room, and he chats with veteran NHL broadcaster Jeff Rimer, the team's TV play-by-play man.
"I've told him 100 times if I've told him once," Rimer said. " 'Do you realize how great of a hockey player you can be?' "
Johansen has not realized his potential, in more ways than one. But over NHL All-Star Weekend, he got a glimpse of what he can be. The whole hockey world did. Months after a bitter contract dispute with the Blue Jackets, he was thrust into a leading role. He played to the crowd and received lots of love in return.
Blue Jackets teammate Nick Foligno made Johansen the first pick in the fantasy draft Friday night.
Johansen hammed it up as he won the breakaway challenge Saturday night, taking off his Blue Jackets sweater to reveal an Ohio State football jersey, grabbing the son of a Blue Jackets trainer and carrying him to score a goal, gathering guys to form the 'Flying V' out of the "Mighty Ducks" movie.
"I think it really bothered him," Rimer said. "Obviously it was a long negotiation."
Brian Elliott's All-Star journey from a Caribbean beach to the NHL's best-on-best in Columbus
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 2 days agoCOLUMBUS — Brian Elliott was in the Turks and Caicos Islands on Thursday, soaking up the sun, snorkeling in the ocean, enjoying the All-Star break. Then he looked at his phone and saw a message from St. Louis Blues general manager Doug Armstrong.
He knew immediately what it was about. He knew Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky had suffered an injury Wednesday night, and he had wondered whether the NHL would need an injury replacement for the All-Star Game.
Some would have ignored the call or come up with an excuse stay away. Not Elliott. Not his wife, Amanda.
"Well," she said, "we're going if that's what it's about."
He called Armstrong and got the news. Yes, if he wanted, he could cut short his vacation, leave his posh resort and scramble to Columbus. He and his wife accepted the invitation, grabbed some champagne and went to the beach. They celebrated as the sun set.
They packed, had dinner and went to bed. They got up Friday morning, had breakfast and caught a cab. They flew from the Turks and Caicos to Miami, from Miami to St. Louis. They had all of two hours to go home, grab cold-weather clothes and get back to the airport.
"I didn't have a suit," Elliott said.
World Cup domination: NHL, NHLPA shooting for hockey supremacy on a global scale
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 2 days agoCOLUMBUS — This is just the beginning. When the NHL and the NHL Players' Association stage the 2016 World Cup of Hockey in Toronto – featuring the Big Six nations, plus a team of other Europeans and one of 23-and-under North Americans, unfortunately – it will be the first step in what NHL commissioner Gary Bettman called their "joint vision for international hockey."
"The aspiration," said John Collins, the NHL's chief operating officer, "is to build a global brand and a global business."
The NHL and the NHLPA announced the World Cup on Saturday at the All-Star Game. But they are working on a Ryder Cup concept – say, a best-of-5 series between North American and European NHL stars in a city like London or Berlin in 2018. They're researching expanding eligibility requirements so NHL players who can't make their national teams can represent other nations where they have roots – say, England or Italy. They hope to hold a qualifying tournament in 2019 to fill out the 2020 World Cup, so they don't need teams of other Europeans and 23-and-under North Americans and the World Cup can become a pure nation-on-nation tournament.
They see potential for growth.
We'll see.
Blackhawks soar into All-Star Game as NHL's go-to glamour team
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 3 days agoCOLUMBUS — Brent Seabrook came with his family Thursday night. The rest of the Chicago Blackhawks' contingent came Friday morning – not on a private jet, not in first class.
Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Duncan Keith and Corey Crawford crammed into a United commuter plane at O'Hare. They stuffed bags into tiny overhead compartments. They were asked to move around the cabin for weight balance. They were supposed to take off at 8:10 a.m. (CT) but sat through about an hour's delay.
No part of them wished they were headed to Cabo or Cancun for vacation – thanks to, say, a sudden lower-body injury – instead of Columbus for the NHL All-Star Game?
"Aw, come on," Toews said as he sat at a microphone for Media Day not long after he landed. "You want me to answer that straight up?"
He smiled.
"I'm kidding," he said.
OK, maybe part of them did wish they were somewhere warm. But Toews was kidding for the most part. Seriously.
Not every team would want to do all that. Take the Los Angeles Kings, who have won two Stanley Cups in the salary-cap era, same as the Blackhawks, but don't have the same profile. They have two all-stars here. They will play in their second stadium game in February.
Three Periods: All-star spotlight on Columbus; Vanek's vow; NHL notes
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 4 days agoNicholas J. Cotsonika's Three Periods column appears on Thursdays. This week's topics include how far Columbus has come as a hockey market and how much room it still has to grow; why Thomas Vanek needs to be more selfish for the Minnesota Wild; and notes on Mike Yeo, Zach Parise and Nick Foligno.
FIRST PERIOD: Columbus has come far as hockey market, can go much farther
As recently as the 1990s, when it came to pro sports, Columbus was a minor-league town. It had the Chill in the ECHL, and hockey had a small niche. An abandoned prison crumbled on West Spring Street, where no one went for a good time.
Today, Columbus has the Blue Jackets in the NHL, and hockey has a growing niche. The prison has been replaced not only by a beautiful arena, but by the Arena District – bars, restaurants, offices, homes, hotels – a model of urban renewal other cities hope to emulate.
This weekend, fans will skate on the outdoor rink at the All-Star Winter Park and pack the NHL Fan Fair. Saturday night, the arena will host the NHL All-Star Skills Competition, and Sunday, the NHL All-Star Game.
"They didn't scream because they saw me," Bobrovsky said. "They just were so excited after this win."
Nick Foligno gets famous: From unknown NHLer to All-Star Game captain
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 5 days agoCOLUMBUS — The last time the NHL staged an All-Star Game, few knew Nick Foligno. It was three years ago in Ottawa, and he was a Senator. But he wasn't an all-star, let alone an all-star captain on center stage in the host city. He wore the No. 71 sweater, but he could have passed for a guy trying to sell No. 71 sweaters at a sporting goods store.
Actually, a week after the All-Star Game, Foligno spent an hour undercover as "Frank" at a SportChek near the arena. To be Frank, it was humbling. A video on the Sens' website shows him in a black T-shirt, posing as an employee, blending in all too well.
"You know what would go really great with those skates?" Frank asks a girl trying on a pair. "A Sens jersey."
Frank smiles. She smiles.
"And probably, like ..."
He looks up and nods. She looks up and nods.
"A Foligno Sens jersey," he says, making eye contact, "just because he's my favorite player."
He walks over to the sweaters, points out they're discounted and …
No recognition. No sale.
"I tried," he says. "Nothing."
"Hmm," Frank says. "No. I wish."
"You look like him,"
"I wish I was that guy."
* * * * *
That left Foligno.
Everything's coming up goals for revitalized Rangers power forward Rick Nash
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 7 days agoThe first goal showcased Rick Nash's dominance. He pounced on a turnover and took off on a 2-on-1 rush. A split-second before the defender could deflect the shot with an outstretched stick, he fired from the left circle and beat the goalie cleanly, giving the New York Rangers a 1-0 lead over the Pittsburgh Penguins 26 seconds into the game Sunday.
The second goal showcased something else. The Rangers won a faceoff. Nash backed up with the puck above the left circle. While still backing up, he flicked the puck on net. It went off the stick of a defender in front, fluttered over the right arm of the goalie and fell across the line. It gave the Rangers a 3-1 lead and turned out to be the winning goal in a 5-2 victory.
There are two parts to Nash's season: good health and good luck. He's skating the way he used to skate, and he's getting the bounces, and he's tied for the NHL lead with 28 goals. He's on pace for 53 goals, which would shatter his career high, as he heads to the All-Star Game in Columbus, the city where he spent his first nine NHL seasons.
"It's amazing," Nash said. "When the puck's going in, it's going in. And when it's not, it's not."
Barry Trotz gave Predators their name, identity and foundation for NHL future
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 10 days agoRemember this as Barry Trotz returns "home" Friday night as the coach of the Washington Capitals: The Nashville Predators wouldn't be the Nashville Predators without him.
General manager David Poile hired Trotz to be the expansion franchise's first coach in August 1997, more than a year before the first faceoff. The team settled on a logo – a saber-toothed skull, a reference to a fossil that had once been unearthed in downtown Nashville – before a name.
They brainstormed. They flipped through dictionaries and hockey books. Trotz looked through a Canadian Hockey League guide and found a team in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League called the Granby Predateurs.
"The Nashville Predators," Trotz said. "That sounds pretty decent."
The fans agreed. They ended up picking Predators instead of Ice Tigers, Fury or Attack.
Trotz had never played in the NHL. He had never coached in the NHL. He didn't know it then, but he would end up playing a huge role in establishing the NHL in Nashville, keeping the NHL in Nashville and building the NHL in Nashville to the point …
"It doesn't matter," Gardner said. "We won't be around when they change the carpet."
Yes, a flood.
Three Periods: Price check in Montreal; NHL goalie notes; Ovechkin 'easy' to coach
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 11 days agoNicholas J. Cotsonika's Three Periods column appears on Thursdays. This week's topics include Carey Price's outstanding season for the Montreal Canadiens; notes on other goaltenders, including Martin Brodeur, Pekka Rinne and Braden Holtby; plus notes on Alex Ovechkin and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
FIRST PERIOD: Price has matured into a 'true leader' for the Canadiens
The shot floated through the air from long range. Carey Price figured he would stop the puck and then play it, because his Montreal Canadiens were on the power play and he didn't want a whistle in the defensive zone. The puck hit him in the chest …
And dropped between his legs and dribbled behind him. He fell to his knees. As he searched for the puck, looking side to side, Erik Condra swiped it out of the crease and into the net. Shorthanded goal. Price had spotted the Ottawa Senators a 1-0 lead just 2:50 into the game Dec. 20 at the Bell Centre.
"What a disaster for Price!" the TV announcer declared on 'Hockey Night in Canada.'
"He said, 'D'oh!' " said teammate Brendan Gallagher. "And then he moved on. That's just the type of person that he is."
SECOND PERIOD: More goaltender notes from around the NHL
Zen and the art of NHL goaltender maintenance: Marc-Andre Fleury keeps calm, keeps winning
Nicholas J. Cotsonika at Yahoo Sports 14 days agoWhen Marc-Andre Fleury allows a goal, he skates to the corner to blow off steam. He scrapes his stick blade across the crease to clear off snow. He watches the replay on the scoreboard screen to see what happened, to see if he could have done something differently, and then he moves on.
"I try," he said.
He said he has always followed this routine. But there are a couple of key differences now: One, he's 30. He's older and wiser. He said he knows how to "relax at the right time." Two, he's in his second season working with Pittsburgh Penguins goaltending coach Mike Bales, who has taught him not only about stopping the puck, but about letting it in.
"Goals are going to go in," Bales said. "It doesn't matter how good you are. You're going to let goals in in practice, you're going to let goals go in in the game, and you need to have a plan how you deal with that. It doesn't mean you have to be happy that they go in, but you have to have a way to reset. Marc's worked on that, and he's very good at that."
Bales said Fleury was "becoming almost more Zen-like in his approach to how he deals with goals." He wouldn't give more detail. Fleury smiled. He wouldn't give more detail, either.

"The research is very clear about that," said Charles Ballinger, executive director emeritus of the National Association for Year-Round School in San Diego. "The only ones who don't lose are the upper 10 to 15 percent of the student body. Those tend to be gifted, college-bound, they're natural learners who will learn wherever they are."
Supporters also say a longer school year would give poor children more access to school-provided healthy meals.
Yet the movement has plenty of detractors — so many that Ballinger sometimes feels like the Grinch trying to steal Christmas.
"I had a parent at one meeting say, 'I want my child to lie on his back in the grass watching the clouds in the sky during the day and the moon and stars at night,'" Ballinger recalled. "I thought, 'Oh, my. Most kids do that for two, three, maybe four days, then say, 'What's next?''"
But opponents aren't simply dreamy romantics.
Besides the outdoor opportunities for pent up youngsters, they say families already are beholden to the school calendar for three seasons out of four. Summer breaks, they say, are needed to provide an academic respite for students' overwrought minds, and to provide time with family and the flexibility to travel and study favorite subjects in more depth. They note that advocates of year-round school cannot point to any evidence that it brings appreciable academic benefits.
"I do believe that if children have not mastered a subject that, within a week, personally, I see a slide in my own child," said Tina Bruno, executive director of the Coalition for a Traditional School Calendar. "That's where the idea of parental involvement and parental responsibility in education comes in, because our children cannot and should not be in school seven days a week, 365 days a year."

PHOENIX (AP) — Lawyers for an Arizona death row inmate are turning to a federal appeals court in an effort to block his scheduled execution Wednesday.
The emergency motion filed appeals a federal trial judge's denial of Donald Beaty's request for an injunction on grounds that his rights could be violated by a last-minute switch of execution drugs.
The appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals comes after the federal trial judge, the Arizona Supreme Court and the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday denied various requests made on behalf of Beaty.
He's scheduled to be executed for the 1984 murder of 13-year-old Christy Ann Fornoff of Tempe.

[webmasterworld.com...] gives css solution, but if you open the menu the width is still not limited.
I use this: <select name="fd" width="230" STYLE="width: 230px" size="0">
However I get the same problem: if you open the menu, the list becomes wide as it's widest element, in my case more than 230.
Note that the "size=0" is not necessary here, but if I set up the size to any positive number I get the correctly working width, but a list box instead of dropdown list.
Any way to go around this?
Good luck!
In the meantime I solved it by showing the cut text of 60 characters and putting the tooltip over it showing the full version, so I escaped js.
This works OK in FF1.5 (but not FF1.0), IE5+6 and Opera 8, however, FF seems to size the drop-down slightly larger than the <select> element if you specify the same width for each (setting the <option> width to 220px in this case seems to overcome this).
The width of the drop-down (as rendered on the page) cannot be forced to appear any smaller than the width of the <select>.
Specifying a width that is much smaller than the select causes FF to make text in the drop-down dissappear when you hover over it - IE6 is no different, defaulting to the width of the <select> as a minimum.
Very nice, penders. I'll keep this for the future projects.
Yes, but this could be helped by adding "title" tag : <option title="full text here"> (well, up to the length of default tooltip width, I think 80 chars), so actually adding tooltip.
Just to clarify...
Note 'much smaller'. This is actually quite a strange visual effect in FF1.5 (and best avoided I recon). If, for example, you styled the <option> tag to width:100px, much smaller than the <select> width of 230px, then although the actual width of the drop-down will be 230px (same as the <select>), when you hover over the items in the drop-down list part of the text will dissappear before your very eyes - as it only shows the first 100px (as defined in CSS), but only when you hover over it!
But, as I say, using a width that is just 10px less for the <option> tags seems to work OK.

Stephen Colbert Announces Charity Donations
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert launched his own political superPAC last year, and the gag raised a lot of money. He had some three-quarters of a million dollars left. Last night, Colbert announced that leftover cash will go to charities, including Habitat for Humanity, the Yellow Ribbon Fund for injured vets and Hurricane Sandy Relief. Colbert jokes that his board denied a request to give it to UNICEF, because, well, that's the name of his yacht. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright National Public Radio.

The friendly and energetic photographers at CL!X Portrait Studios welcome families, seniors, and tikes into their studio, where upbeat photo shoots yield visually fetching portraits. During shoots, photographers delegate full creative power to the clients, who can direct their own shoots by bringing in pets, props, and any outfit they desire, while the photographer makes suggestions and exchanges ideas with the client. CL!X's generous lenses let any number of subjects bunch into the frame, so golfers may pose solo or with their caddy's extended family for the same charge.
Bashes go off without a hitch when hosts relinquish control to MyFunOverLouisville, which steps in to provide photo booths, racecar tracks, and portable mini golf. While photo booths capture and print whimsical pictures of guests decked out in provided props, fellow partygoers steer remote-control Ferraris or Mini Z's toward the finish line on the racetrack. If hosts have 350 square feet of indoor or outdoor space to spare, MyFunOverLouisville can also erect nine-hole putt-putt courses and set competitors loose with putters, colorful golf balls, and score sheets to tally strokes or use for sketching the festivities until the photo booth's set up.
Photographer Jenn Sparks couldn't pick a more fitting name for her business, Sparks of Life Photography. That's because the shutterbug of nearly a decade snaps photos of all aspects of life, from a smile shared between newlyweds to the night sky above a sprawling canyon. Her specialty—family and lifestyle portraits—is apropos given her penchant for capturing moments and her personable approach to her subjects. In addition to working with people, Jenn's adept with inanimate objects, frequently designing ads and building websites for local businesses.
When she was eight years old, Nichole Conard?s grandparents gave her the gift of a camera. Since that day, she?s seen the world through the eye of her camera lens. She worked for other photography companies, earning promotions and publication, before she finally realized her dream of opening her own studio, RedRock Photography. When the business grew too big for Nichole to handle alone, she turned to her sister-in-law, Jennifer Baldwin. A passionate shutterbug and photojournalist, Jennifer joined the company as a co-owner and photographer. Today, Nichole focuses on the studio's Wichita branch while Jennifer maintains the Emporia branch.
Today, the sisters-in-law are busy shooting all types of portraits. Nichole has amassed more than 20 years of professional portrait experience, and Jennifer?s been shooting professionally for six years, allowing them to draw from a wealth of experience as they capture family photos, maternity shots, and one-person portraits, as well as their specialty: children?s photography. Sessions at their studio are private and unrushed, and outdoor shoots capture images in a single natural background. During Cruise sessions, the photographer and subject travel around, stopping to take photographs with unique locations, striking landscapes, or curiously grinning cats.
No one wants to throw away the records, photos, and videos from their youth, but the shifting media landscape and physical deterioration makes savoring the moments they contain more difficult with every passing year. That race to preserve these precious moments is what keeps A1 Media Services' staffers coming to work, where they transfer analog media such as VHS, Beta, Digital8, and MiniDV into more lasting DVD and CD formats. The trained technicians are adept at ironing out the problems facing the aging media they're transferring, clearing away the darkened grime and wrinkle marks from old photos and editing out record imperfections such as scratch marks and backward messages of your mom telling you to clean your room. The transferred CDs and DVDs come encased with their own personalized label, allowing clients to easily find the pictures while minimizing the space needed for storage.
Master photographer Trey Allen boasts a resumé of national awards and the experience of snapping shutters for nearly 30 years. He brings that expertise to portrait sessions that frame subjects with copiously colored and styled studio backgrounds or five acres of gardens, wildflower fields, and stone patios along the Little Arkansas River—though he can also travel to a more personally significant destination, such as the site where a couple shared their first meatball sub. Trey readies subjects for each shoot with extensive online tips for session preparation, and reveals the fruits of each shoot at a proofing session as early as the next day. From there, patrons determine which shots are worthy of graduating to one of Trey's prints or digital-image CDs prepped in-studio by his highly knowledgeable staff within a month after the shoot.

The RINO Rebellion
Friday, February 22, 2013
WASHINGTON — RINO-hunting, the long-popular political sport that morphed in 2008 into a sort of hysteria-driven obsession, lately has become a suicide mission.
Quite the opposite is true. Indeed, as the base seeks El Savior, isn't it time for a RINO Rebellion?
More or less.
Sorry, guys. The sentiment behind no-labels is at the core of my very being, though I prefer Walker Percy's more eloquent imperative that we should repent of labels. It is the essence of my Moi-ness: Stop fussing and fix it. But movements don't begin with "No." No-labels is a non (END ITAL) without a sequitur. A yield without a merge. A ... non-starter. |

Labour fraud accused get bail
Comment on this storyPretoria - Two men accused of defrauding the labour department of R1.2 million were granted bail of R5000 each by the Pretoria Specialised Commercial Crimes Court on Wednesday, the department said.
Kenneth Martin Mahuluhulu, 32, and his co-accused Khathutshelo Nethengwe, 35, a former labour department employee, were arrested in August after being on the run for two years, said department spokesman Page Boikanyo.
"They have been given bail to allow them to instruct their legal representatives on the way forward," he said. - Sapa
